This demo looks and feels simply awesome. Keep up the good work!

It's a good start.

You didn't declare HALFTILE.
--- edit ---
No, you declared it, but for some reason, the Basic compiler does not see it...

Well, what way to compute the coordinates of nearest (by the direction character going move to) cell center can you advice? You could add the width of half a cell to the x, y coordinates, and then shift right to translate that into cell coordinates. So, supposing the cell width is 16 px: HALF_TILE ...

That's a good start.

I need RDC decompressor code to use the map from Genesis RPG Creator example in my project. As an alternative, there are other map editors out there, though a converter would be needed either way. Just to mention some options: Beehive is designed for Sega Genesis: http://gendev.spritesmind.net/foru...

Pretty awesome looking!

I did some preliminary checking on the bug; it does not seem to be related to image dimensions, though the number of colors does seem to affect it: reducing the image to 256 colors before importing seems to avoid the bug, though, in theory, the tool should already be performing the conversion. 'neuq...

One more question from me. How to get compatible "portrait" images :?: In some images the transparent background turns to black or white on the output. If I save those "portrait" files from PhotoShop they show this kind effect. If I re-save them from GIMP - some files works fine on the output, but ...

Thanks for help, haroldoop . Compilation now running fine. That's good to know! :D Although I noticed that symbols like "-" or "[]" in file names are not welcomed. I see... it seems the file name validation on the editor is a bit too conservative (the compiler, itself, does not care). :P I have pos...

Well, I don't have TrueType font. I made it pixel by pixel in PhotoShop - so I have raster file. White letters with black borders - https://i.imgur.com/7fg06FY.png I see... one option would be to provide your own FNT file (which is actually a plain text file) to map coordinates within the PNG file ...

It is possible to add the custom (2 colors) font from the raster image file? Yes, the raster font file was generated using BMFont v1.14, available on http://www.angelcode.com/products/bmfont/. This tool allows you to choose any TrueType font and then generate a PNG file containing the font converte...

The Mojon Twins have just released their tool for making visual novels for the Sega CD in BasiEgaXors. Pretty interesting stuff. ;) http://www.mojontwins.com/2017/11/23/liberamos-vane-motor-visual-novels-mega-cd/ https://github.com/mojontwins/VANE http://www.mojontwins.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11...

Version 0.10.1 is now available: Product name string on the ROM header changed to "Powered by BlocklyVN32X"; Generated ROM will be automatically padded to 256KB, 512KB, 1MB, 2MB, 3MB or 4MB (that is, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 or 32 mbits). Release page: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/BlocklyVN32X/releases/tag/...

That's really weird; AFAIK, there's no routine on the engine that would reach beyond the size of the compiled code.
Anyway, I suppose the compiler should have padded the ROM, anyway; I should implement the improvement on a future version.

Anyway, I'm happy to know it's working on real hardware!
